Guild Wars 2

Hello ,
Instead of anti farm techno;ogy which is punishing the player base.
May I suggest allowing the players to Flag for pvp a character that is proven to be automated and farming .
The players that kill the Bot get to kill steal everything including its armor and anything in it’s bags.
This could turn a problem into a fun event for the players .
We would be hunting characters that not even arenanet know about and I think it could be quite a lot of fun .
This would be a real dynamic event lol.

I’am sure Arenanet can come up with a way of identification but here is one suggestion .
To identify a character as a bot we could send the character a tell and if after say 5 tells you get no reply the character gets flagged for pvp and a distinctive sign appears above its head and the area identified as a dynamic event to the map .

Looting the bot should work just the same as looting a dynamic event ,except the bot should be left in its underwear for all to laugh at .

Any discussion would be appreciated as the more replies the more chance a moderator will read this and pass it on for consideration by the designers .

I have no clue if it is technically possible but I know I would get a lot of pleasure from actually killing these things that threaten the game and robbing them of the loot they are stealing .

Thank you for reading .

Although this sounds fun, this would be insanely easy to abuse.

I’am sure the developers could come up with a method to implement this and the botting issue may be reduced substantially

Anet is to busy punishing me for loving to play the game…
20-30 minutes of play then total diminishing of rewards and even loot drops then i get to leave the game for about an hour so my diminishing returns reset..

Just a bad way to to do things in any game let alone a so called mmo….

Uh, no

Just no.

If ANet can take action on a player, they might as well just ban them outright. If you’re expecting open world PvP… I have no words.

And again, the anti-farming code is to prevent farming. By everyone. Not just bots.
